TRUNG NGUYEN G7 PURE BLACK Instant Coffee for Energy Boost - 100% Soluble Coffee Without Sugar - Strong, Pure & Rich Vietnamese Instant Energy Coffee - Original Taste for Coffee Connoiseurs (200 Sachets/Bag)

This instant coffee really surprised me. It has a flavor that immediately reminded me of the first time I had egg coffee in Hanoi, Vietnam. There is something about the taste that has that same rich, slightly bold Vietnamese coffee character that is hard to describe but very recognizable if you have had it before. It also works really well for making Vietnamese coffee with condensed milk. The strong flavor holds up nicely to the sweetness and gives you that classic combination without needing a phin filter or any extra equipment. I have a phin, but this is so much easier and so tasty. What surprised me most is that I actually enjoy this more than fresh coffee I make from my drip machine or even my espresso machine for Vietnamese style coffees. It has a distinct flavor that stands out, and the convenience makes it even better. Preparation is extremely easy. Just add hot water and you are done, which makes it great for travel, quick mornings, or when you want good coffee without the whole brewing process. This has a really nice Vietnamese-style coffee flavor and is the brand I like best so far for instant coffee for my Vietnamese coffees.

Overwhelming aroma of coffee once the packet is opened and mixed in hot water. Yet, the taste is a bit bland.

Now, my father in law found this coffee years ago when traveling in Vietnam which he does often. He introduced it to my husband who fell in love with it. I am a die hard Southern tea drinker and only on a rare occasion will venture into drinking a cup of coffee. Finally, I caved and at my husbands encouragement, I tried this coffee. So glad I did! I love it and prefer it over any coffee I've tried, including Starbucks. Its so smooth, a good flavor and has a lovely aroma. I'm not a coffee connoisseur but I'd say the strength is a medium strength. It comes in a regular coffee package (a bag of the coffee powder or beans) but we love buying the packets as we use them on the go. I keep several packets at all times in my purse so I have them when I travel. My husband even carries multiple (like 20) packets in his lunch box and will share them with anyone who seems to need a pick me up/ wake up moment. Now look y'all... the value for the money is a no brainer! I see folks spending $8-$10 a day at Starbucks and I just grimace for their budget. Why do that when you can spend what amounts to 15 cents per packet buying this! Thats 200 cups of coffee at only 15 cents per packet! That right there is a HELLO moment.. you have your own personal Starbucks ability at a fraction of the cost! My husband drinks his coffee black and loves it. Me? Coming from being a former "only tea drinker" with cream and sugar, I dress my cup of coffee up with cream and monk fruit. Yeah.. you read that right. I ditched the sugar and use pure monk fruit since it has health benefits and sugar only has addiction benefits. I am still a die hard tea drinker but I am also a die hard "gonna drink my daily morning cup of Trung Nguyen G7 black coffee (with a little cream and monk fruit). sigh.. I hear my husband rolling his eyes and saying "tell em to drink it black.. not adding that fancy stuff. Its great just black". Me? I'm saying "add you some cream and monk fruit and you'll be loving your morning cup of this joe too".

She was nice & cute

This coffee is so smooth. No bitter taste at all
